You probably have important questions regarding moving away after a divorce.

  • I want to move out of state for a better lifestyle.  Can I do that?
  • My ex-wife gets the children on the weekends. She is moving to the east coast because of a job offer, and she wants to file for custody. Can she do that?
  • I am moving out of state, and one of my children wants to move with me. The other wants to stay and finish high school with his friends. My ex and I are friendly. Do we need to go through the court system to make changes to the court orders?
  • Does any move count? What if I only move a few miles away?

Whatever your circumstance may be, it is important to consult with an attorney regarding any contemplated changes to divorce orders.
